NCV5501DT50G

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Overview

The NCV5501DT50G is a fixed-output low-dropout (LDO) linear voltage regulator manufactured by onsemi. It provides a fixed 5.0 V output with a maximum load current of 500 mA. The device operates within an input voltage range of 2.5 V to 16 V and features a typical dropout voltage of 0.7 V at full load. It includes integrated protection mechanisms such as overcurrent limiting, thermal shutdown, and reverse polarity protection. The component is qualified under the AEC-Q100 automotive standard and is housed in a TO-252-3 (DPAK) surface-mount package.
